My classroom is the home of upward of thirty rambunctious and spirited fourth grade students in each one of my math and science rotations, which makes individual attention and rapid feedback hard to come by, but everyone is always in need of my individual attention. Approximately 70% of my students are eligible for special education services, which presents various unique challenges in itself. My student's community is also the location of a cluster of extended stay motels, mobile home communities, battered women's shelters, mental health facilities, and low income housing apartments and homes. These surroundings may be the colorful origins of my students, but we are determined to ensure they will not be the bleak ending of them.
